I am a very proud African American. I know my history and the history of my ancestors well. My ancesters were raped, hung, land stolen( Slocum Massacre 1910), murdered, homes burned all under the sanctions of the Confederate Flag. That flag is a symbol of racial hatred and put fear in the hearts of my ancesters, even into the 60's. Why wash our faces with that flag now and reopen racial hatred and fear?
